I would personally go for a matte grey or chalk. In terms of actual colors, I'm partial to dark red (dark purple is great, too).

Just registering here...as much as I prefer the old tail lights, seeing some of the up-close videos has me convinced it's going to look pretty nice in person.

Exactly the same, I have a '17 PP, and the handling and brake feel are so good. I would definitely consider an upgrade once they add the PP to the 2022 refresh.

When is that commercial from? Man I'd love some real updates on the S-FR. Such a cool concept, would love to pick one up and make it a project car (if it's reasonably priced). So small, so agile!

Glad you went with the PP. I also did on my '17 and I absolutely don't regret it. It does feel better than the '16 I test drove beforehand, especially in the brakes department.

Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone knew whether the JDM leather/alcantara seat covers for the GT86 would fit on a BRZ limited over the leather/alcantara seats?

I noticed that according to...

Definitely wait for stock. Given they have a catless header (no catalytic converter), that probably means they tuned it as well, which means that god knows what could be wrong with the engine.

Just to chime in, I also paid 500 under invoice for my limited with PP (pretty much the same as the Series Yellow, aside from colour). Try Costco Pricing for 0 effort negotiation.

I would only worry if there's a large.difference in the offset of those wheels vs the stock +48. That would change the scrub radius and potentially put excess load on the wheel bearings.

Good choice. I'd recommend getting the OEM JDM markers, just so you won't potentially have water leakage issues (which I've heard is a problem with the Helix markers).

That's why I ended up just going with the JDM clear markers for my DGM. Smoked is cool, but unless you're going blackout it's just a little out of place.
